  1. Re:Cuplrit? on How iTunes Hurts Weird Al · · Score: 0

    the real problem is the way they classify it when some one buys online... most record lables STILL charge for packaging and shipping of a digital download... is it just me or is that fucked up... also when the RIAA reports their losses they exclude digital downloads and Tapes and also records these may be a small # but they add up over time... and last time they released their year end sales reports they showed digital downloads have surpassed physical sales... but they still seem to charge for things like packaging marketing and shipping on a digital sale. i dont think they pay Apple for music put on itunes store... neither do i believe that the recording company sends apple a CD for every mp3 sold... but they may spend $$ to be on the store front of apples page... but other then that no.. i think the artist should just fuck over their record lables and all tell them to go to hell... at least the "85%" that is part of the RIAA

  2. Re:Trolling the Mac community? on Dvorak Admits To Trolling Mac Users · · Score: 2, Funny

    it would also have a im feeling lucky button... just make sure ur safe lift filter is on unless u want to go to those floors....

  3. Re:Not so funny when/if the seller commits suicide on Online Revenge · · Score: -1

    ever hear of natural selection....

  4. AU? on Voyager 2 Detects Peculiar Solar System Edge · · Score: 0

    last time i checked 1 AU stands for astronomical unit what IS the distance from the earth to the sun. so it would be 85X the distance from here to the sun... so the caption really should say something along that line then how we are "much closer to the Sun than the location of 85 AU found by Voyager 1." that really makes garbled sense... considering we are 1AU from the sun.

  5. Re:Let me be the first to say.... on Spacecraft Crashes Into Satellite · · Score: 0

    well the resoning behind it ... i got in a accident and the airbag knocked my arm into the driver window (breaking the window but not my hand or arm...) and then the rug burn on my arm wasnt too pretty either... not to mention finalls were the next day so i was very not happy

  6. Re:Let me be the first to say.... on Spacecraft Crashes Into Satellite · · Score: 0

    i see it all now... the news report... "auto pilot car was going along the road and suddenly went into oncomming traffic and accelerated 5 times its speed into the front end of a tractor trailer".... "auto manufacurer has no comment but the air bags did deploy killing the driver instantly" (i hate airbags if you couldnt tell)

  7. Re:sweet on Creative Sues Apple · · Score: 0

    cd quality music would be only worth it if u got some pretty damn nice headphones (the ones that are in the 100$+ range..) because anything else you wont be able to hear the quality difference between ITMS downloads or CD rips... so untill the whole world owns a pair of 200$ sure in ear monitor headphones then i dont think many ppl will notice.

  8. Re:Slashdot is like Charlie Brown on Light so Fast it Travels Backward · · Score: 0

    totally lyke how all ppl spll bad grammer & how you get to read about M$ pushing back the release of vista a few more months/years/decades/millennia and what not...

  9. Re:This is getting old on Microsoft May Delay Windows Vista Again · · Score: 0

    in reality we need to make a new name for OS... the core/kernal is the real OS now and then the added on crap is just looks and eye candy... my friend has videos playing as his desktop (no longer desktop picture more of desk top motion picture) what leads to us needing to totally re structure our names for the OS now

  10. Re:Won't work because... on Congress May Consider Mandatory ISP Snooping · · Score: 0

    all US companies outsource servers to other countries to avoid stupid law passed by anal data hungery people....

  11. umm...too much? on Software Lets Programmers Code Hands-free · · Score: 0

    if i had to do this ""if (currRecNum maxOffSet)" a VoiceCode user only needs to say: "if current record number is less than max offset then". " i think i would live threw the pain...(doctors will perscribe pain killers :p ) come on a coder can type that if statment in less than 2 seconds, it would take them about 4 to say it outloud in that form....

    not to mention his one cold play song that he downloaded

  13. Re:The Pirate Bay loves these guys on MPAA Files Lawsuits Targeting Major Torrent Sites · · Score: 0

    i dont know i think i own that copyright for the word "torrent" haha.... but i cant wait for some of these lawsuits to go threw... especially the ones that are still being battled from kazaa when they used kazaa lite and reverse engeneered versions of kazaa to find people breaking the very same law (DCMA) they hide behind. well only by the time they pull their heads out of their ass will they start to realize that their artists are starting to get pissed @ them... concidering they are attacking people on welfair and dont have any money to begin with doesnt really have any rational though to it. but who ever said the RIAA and MPAA ever used the small things in their heads called brains. i guess brain doners do exist in the real world

    i just wish some one with money and time would go out and take down the fuckin RIAA for violationg the DCMA when they were using kazaa lite back in the day... that would be totally awesome... that or they go after some serial killer and then he flips and kills the whole board... not that i am wishing any bad uppon them or anything i bet they are family people with kids who download music all day right? i wonder what happens when some one finds out that thier kids are download music and then it ends up on the front page of the news and then says "RIAA board memebers children immune to lawsuits"

  18. here is a good idea on Faulty Microsoft Driver Saps Intel Core Duo power · · Score: 0

    lets install linux on the pc with problems if it then (after writing drivers for all the hardware) does not have the problem it is windows... and then it confirms what is already known M$ sucks...

  19. what program did they use on MacWorld's iMac Core Duo Benchmarks Debunked? · · Score: 0

    i wonder if their bench mark program was universal... dev's say that with out rosetta you gain a 100% increase... so almost all their crap is wrong if it is using rosetta

  20. do nothing or something? on Google's Action Makes A Mockery Of Its Values · · Score: 0

    well they kinda had 2 choices ....
          1. change
          2. dont chang

  24. is it just me on Tension Between Record Labels And Digital Radio · · Score: 0

    only if the court system would say fuck off to the RIAA and MPAA life would be so much easier... last time i checked if you pay for XM radio... so what the hell are they trying to double charge us for it... it is kinda like buying a CD but to play it in ur CD player at home u have to pay a monthly fee of 9.99 that isnt how this world works.... i say just shoot the basterds now and get it over with... most of them dont deserve to live... stealing money from the poor to fill their bank accounts... they say it is to go back to the artists but no artist has seen any money back from the legal suits the RIAA has won...

  25. Re:Movie Quality? on IBM's Radical Cell Processor · · Score: 0

    it is possible for the cell to do this look at god of war for ps 2 it has amazing graphics... only down fall is it is a short game dew to the limit of the disk size... with larger disk size and the way faster processor ps3 could possibly get that look. just the only problem will be how long will it take the developers to get there... the graphics on ps2 right now on some new games are amazing and it took them this long to get to that point by the time they tap into the real abilitys of the ps3 it might just be not worth the wait (but still i am going to buy a PS3 over a xbox360...)
